All I have to say is ...

Four more weeks.

We don't exactly vote each other off the island but sometimes it feels like we're trying to. I really love this class and I'm learning a lot. It's great to work with 10 other people on an instructional design project and in the process make some really great friends.

1-2-3

So sometimes when I'm home reading or doing homework I hear people honk their horns as the drive down University. I think to myself: Are they honking at me? I don't know - maybe. How would I ever know?

I'll let you in on a little secret I have with my basketball girls. Sometimes they need a little pick-me-up during a game or something, especially if they were just chewed out by the head coach. So I taught them that three pats on the back mean 1-2-3 = I love you. It's fun to get texts from them on occasion that end with "123".

1 = I



2 = LOVE



3 = YOU

So next time you are driving down University Avenue near the Wells Fargo Building and you want to tell me you love me ... you now know what to do. Not only will I know that the honks were for me but I'll know someone loves me! Problem is I just won't know who.

P.S. Yes those are my phalanges.

Shower Power

Yesterday I was sitting in the back of Ann Dee and Cameron's car next to Van when Ann Dee threw a bunch of laminated scriptures at me and said, "here have some shower power." I guess somebody in her ward stole my idea.

I was totally bugged. That was my idea - I started it on my mission. I've done it ever since. Here is my shower right now ...

My shower is packed with quotes, scriptures, affirmations, and goals - this is only some of it.

A few months ago, my friend showed me this product. Again I was bugged - I could be rich.

Today I got a text message from a friend wanting to know how to keep the quotes up. Laminate and packing tape my friend. That sounded cool - repeat out loud: Laminate and packing tape.

I remember a time when I had a boy over (yes one that I liked) for game night and he went to use my bathroom. He came back exclaiming, "there is quite a bit of lamination going on in that bathroom." At first I was embarrassed that he saw all my little affirmations and then I was more bothered by the fact that he was looking in my shower. WEIRD.

I think I need to add a quote to my shower about sharing and not needing the credit for really good ideas. Anyone have a good quote along those lines?

Come over and take a shower - it's almost as good as church . Wouldn't you agree Ann Dee?

Ever felt like this?

This link was emailed to me by my friend Holly W.

It made me laugh.

Here is the movie:

This is my quote: "Sometimes there are just not enough rocks."

Your turn - any favorites?

Over the hill ...

In December Ann Dee turned 30.

Here are some photos from Sam's unofficial birthday party:





Happy Birthday big brother (that reminds me - I have a show to watch)!

T-Y-S-O-N

Last week Tyson called to ask me to say the closing prayer at his baptism. I pretended that I didn't know who was calling.

"Who is this?"
"T-Y-S-O-N"

Today was his big day and I was happy to be there!

Some of Tyson's cousins came. I took a picture of Charlie and Van cause they have the same hairdo.
